FOR YOUR COUNTRY, READ I READ I READ
At.a period when the hot shot and bombs were falling thick and
fast around the gallant band who
a were defending their country's
honor in Fort Sumter, Gov. Curtin had sent into the Legislature
of the State, then in session, a message suggesting the better or
ganization of the militia, and asking for an appropriation of five
hundred thousand dollars to place the state on a war footing. When
the bill proposing to make this appropriation came before the
Legislature, Dr. Heck voted against it, and thus practically de
clared his disregard of all that aimed at the defence of our homes and
the_preservation of our liberties.
The bill as it passed, can be found in the last year's volume of
the laws of the state, page 229- 7 -and the proceedings attending its
passage in the House, in the Journal of 1861, page 957. We ex

Freemen of Dauphin county ! Soldiers! who marched at the , first
call of danger to the defence of the capital of your country, and
who still rest upon your arms night and day around the limits
of that capital, are you ready to vote , for a man who so lightly es
timated the honor of your country and the lives of its defenders? Dr. .
Heck is one of the old Breckentidge Democrats who sympathized
1
and still sympathize with and confide in the course of the traito r .
Breckenridge, and . showed his attachment for those who are at the
head of this rebellion by refusing to make an appropriation to arm
the great state of Pennsylvania to aid their overthrow and it 4
suppression. This man is again before you, and again soliciti
your vote that he may again disgrace the halls of legislation with
his presence and his conduct. He desires to be returned that he
may_ aid in embarrassing the future efforts of our noble old corn
mouwealth in assisting to tedeem the land from rebellion by enforc
ing the lawns and vindicating the federal authority. No patriot, no
brave, loyal lover of his country can vote for Dr: Heck.
. .. . .
Freemen, ttemember that this is the record of Dr. Heck whilst he was in the Le- ,
gislatttre. Let us now examine his action at a later period.
On the Ttl2 day of August, 1862, the Democratic County Convention met at the
Court House, in this city,, for the, purpose of nominating a ticket. Dr. LEWIS
HECK was a t delegate to that Coniention, and assisted in nominating himself as a
candidate for: the Legislature. We copy the following from the Patriot and Union .
of Auguit rd, 1862, viz
" Dr. FLECK moved that th_t) resolutions passed 14 the Demooratie State Conven
tion on. 'the 4th of July be adopted by thia'Convention.
"Tb e'reading of the resolutions was called; for, and after reading of which they
were - adopted amid applaise.' •
The resolutions and nominations of that Conven t i oA have thus been fairly_ and
openly approved by Dr. HECK, and we give him , all due credit for' his action in
having them adopted. He stands therefore squarely up to - the platform which the
•
friends,of the traitor: John C. Breekenridge advocated in this State.
t The candidates nominated by that convention are also the avowed enemies of the
country. Isaac Slenker and James P. Barr, for Auditor and Surveyor General, are
both on the record as the abettors of rebellion. Slenker seconded the efforts of
Buchanan to steal or purchase Cuba—and he was, also in , favor and would now es
tablish, if he had the power, the slave trade iteeverY port of the 'Union. Barr is
known to have so far defended treason as to have incurred the wrath and run' the dan
ger of a halter at Pittsburg.
Such is the record and such the company, in which we find Dr. Heck
First, We find him voting against arming , dite,State.
Second, We discover him in a Conventionealled 'to endorse' the proceedings of
those - who openly oppose the National Goveriiiient.
Third, He refused to vote money to pay thinfe Who, were willing to de,fen'd the
lminor.and glory of the-Commonwealth. _ -
IS such a maa lit to occupy a seat in the Lesielature
Zitegtao.
Ely bitgrapt.
OBJECTS OP REBEL INVASION.--There is a 'class
of men who now appear to be over wise and
claim to be very sagacious when they declare
that Gov. Curtin's call for the Militia was " a
big scare." Letinch as them read the following
Richmond Dispatch, and they will discover what
the rebels actually designed when they attempt
ed the invasion of Maryland, The Dispatch
thus declared :
The road to Pennsylvania lies invitingly open.
There are no regular soldiers on the route r and
it would be a task of little difficulty to disperse
the rabble of militia that might be brought to
Ovpose them. The country is enormously rich ;
it abounds in fat cattle, cereals, horses, and
mules. Our troops would live on the very fat
of the land, They would find an opportunity,
moreover, to teach the Dutch farmers and gra
ziers, who have been clamorous for this war,
what invasion really is. If once compelled to
take his own physic, which is a great deal more
than he ever bargained for, Mynheer will cry
aloud for peace in a
,very short time. For
our own part, we trust the, proclamation of
Pope, and the manner in which his army carried
it out, will not be forgotten. We hope the
troops will turn the whole country into a de
sert, as the Yankees did the Piedmont county
of Virginia. Let not a blade of grass, or a stalk
of corn, or a barrel of flour, or a bushel of meal,
or a sack of salt; or a horse or a cow, or a hog,
or a sheep, be left wherever they move along.
Let vengeance be taken for all that has been
done, until retribution itself shall stand aghast.
This is the country of the smooth spoken,
would-be-gentleman,McClellan. He has caused
a loss to us in Virgiia of at least thirtyithou
sand negroes, the most valuable property that
a Virginian can own. They have no negroes
in Pennsylvania. Retaliation must therefore
fall upon something else, and let it fall upon
everything that constitutes property. A Dutch
farmer has no negroes, but he has horses that
can be seized, grain that can be confiscated,
cattle that can be killed, and houses that can
be burnt. He can be taken prisoner and sent
to Libby's warehouse, as our friends in Fan
outer and London, Culpepper and the Penmen-
le, have been sent to 'Lincoln's dungeons in
the North. Let retaliation be complete, that
the Yankees may learn that two can play at
the game they have themselves commenced.
MORAL CO aRAGE
That was a noble reply when the Sultan of
Turkey offered Kostrath wealth and power if he
would embrace the Moslem faith: " Welcome,
if need be, the ax or the gibbet ; but curses on
the tongue that dares to make to me so infa
mous a proposal 1" He was a' refugee in the
domains of -the Sultan, and to refuse compliance
with his wiehes might be, death ; but the great
Efungadin had resolved that, come what might
his - conscience shorild be free. The words of
Zwingle, when emolument was offered him if
be would adhere to the Romish tenets, were as
noble: "Do not think that for any : money I
will suppress single syllable of the truth 1"
No one can fail to admire the moral courage
that prompted.these replies, or the strong lan
guage of the replies themselves. Moral cour
age never uses weak words. .The Saviour enun
dated the principle of true moral courage when
he said, " Let your communication be yea, yea;
and nay, nay; for, whatsoever is more than
these cometh of evil." A man's strength of
character may be correctly measured by the
manner in which he answers an opponent. " I
have been bullied," wrote the Countese of Dor
set to Sir Joseph Williamson, who had nomi
nated to her a candidate for the borough •of
Appleby, "by a usurper. I have been neglect
ed by a court, but I will not be diciated by, a
subject—your man sha'nt stand 1" We need
nothing more to tell us that the Counter.s was
a strong woman. When President Lincoln,
while on his way to the capital, asked the Dem
ooratic Legislature of New Jersey it they would
sustain him should it be necessary " to put the
foot down firmly," it understood him, and ap
plauded. He did' not say tat "if he should
be reduced to the dire necessity of resorting to
coercion to uphold the principles Of constitu
tional liberty ler which the fathers," etc., but
should it be necessary " to put down the, foot
firmly.." These few". meaning words showed
that he had moral stamina: The plain Saxon
of his Inaugural sent to the winds the 'schemes
of compromises. In blunt, bold words, he
thrusts the principles of equity and of dia.
Constitution into - the face of the nation, and
declared that he would stand by those princi- -
plea. The people took heart—their sense of.
justice Woke—they knew their man, and re-,
eohoed'hiit voice.
There are comparatively few who, under all ,
circumstances, dare speak their real sentiments.
Let one glance over The Congressional Globe for
the last decade, and he will see how lamentably
the truism is verified. 'Oar Charles Sumners
and Andrew Johnson can hardly be called rep
resentative men. They are
"Like Druid rooks
Or spires of land that stand apart,.
• Cleft from the main."
Men like Sumner ate known as " radicals," and
men like Johnson as " renegades," and snob
epithets are often but other words for saying
that a man dare assert that his soul is his own.
But, "with all the abuse heaped upon them,
snob men are regarded with universal confi
dence; and they alone. When the calculating
politician wishes: to, know which ale of a pol
itical question Sumner will be found, he secret
ly asks himself which side has the claim of
humanity-he is confident that Sunmer will not
swerve from that.
The reply ,of Parson Brownlow, the Tann-,
esiree patriot, is an example of true independ
ence of spirit. He was hiprison, and; had aid:
fared severely from an acute disease. " Brown.'
low," said an officer " you; should not be here. -
Take the oath of allegiance to the Confederate
Government, which will not only entitle you lo
e speedy release, but will insure - You protec
tion." " Sir, " said Brownlovt, " before I
'would take the oath to support such a bell
forsaken institution, I would tuffer myself to
rot or die with old age 1" . The answer, though
bharacteristically Southern, renlinds one of
ituther's famous remark about entering Worms.
The noble Tennesseettn was ready . to sacrifice
mite, health, and life itself fora p rinciple. He
meant' to be his own man; and dared assert his
claim to his manhood in unmistakable words.
Principles,are bulwarks intrusted as by God.
If, we fail to defend them, we are.conqttered,
ruined. To defend our principles
.requires
plain, truthful speech. "`Let Your yes be'yea,
and your nay, nay, '= says the sacred writer,

From our Morning Edition
From Gen. M'Clellan's Army
The Harper's Ferry Bailroad Bridge
Completed.
THE ARMY ABOUT TO ADVANOB
POSITION OF THE REBEL FORCES
lavcoaia, vet. 4.
The American contains the following des
patch :
HARPER'S FERRI, Oct. B.—The railroad
bridge was completed yesterday, and trains of
cars passed over it into Harper's Ferry to-day,
with troops and munitions of war and army
stores
The completion of this bridge is one of the
main points of the campaign, and may be re
garded as the forerunner of active operations.
The Winchester road is being put in order and
trains will run at once to and beyond Bolivar
Heights.
The President Spent the day in reviewing the
different divisions , of the troops, after a long
consultation in the morning w.th Gen. McClel
lan. He will start to-morrow (Sunday) morn
ing down the National road towards Frederick,
viewing on his way the South Mountain battle
field and stopping at the hospitals at Middle
town.
It is expected that he will reach Frederick
about noon, where extensive preparations are
making for his reception by the people, and a
scene of enthusiasm may be expected that wilt
rival the welcome of General McClellan. The
President will return to Washington with a
better opinion of the loyalty of Maryland than
has heretofore been entertained in official quar
ters.. •
There to much uncertainty here as to the
movement of the army. A strong advance wilt
undoubtedly be made into Virginia, but wheth
er it, will be by.the way of Hrrper's Ferry or
over the. Williamsport Ford, no . one has the
'Wettest idea.
the precise position and force of the snowy
is known at headquarters, and our troops are
ready and anxious to move forward, and .it is
said that the delay is not owing to any lack of
readiness on the part of General McClellan--
So long as the enemy lies in his presentposition
it is said no hurry wilfbe evinced on our part
to disturb him.
A large body of the enemy areatill at Falling
Waters, and at Bunker's Hill, in the rear of
Martinsburg, whilst a few regiments are at
Charlestown, their pickets meeting those of
General Sumner, about three mules this side of
that place.
The fortifications on the Maryland Blights
are being strengthened, so as to make the place
truly impregnable in case of any reverse, and
